irisset(Option,Value,Option,Value,...)
\end{verbatim}

\paragraph{Input arguments}\label{input-arguments}

\begin{itemize}
\item
  \texttt{Option} {[} char {]} - Name of the IRIS configuration option
  that will be modified.
\item
  \texttt{Value} {[} \ldots{} {]} - New value that will be assigned to
  the option.
\end{itemize}

options}\label{modifiable-iris-configuration-options}

\subparagraph{Dates and formats}\label{dates-and-formats}

\begin{itemize}
\item
  \texttt{'dateFormat='} {[} char \textbar{} \emph{`YPF'} {]} - Date
  format used to display dates in the command window, CSV databases, and
  reports. Note that the default date format for graphs is controlled by
  the \texttt{'plotdateformat='} option. The default `YFP' means that
  the year, frequency letter, and period is displayed. See also help on
  \href{dates/dat2str}{\texttt{dat2str}} for more date formatting
  details. The \texttt{'dateformat='} option is also found in many IRIS
  functions whenever it is relevant, and can be used to overwrite the
  \texttt{'irisset='} settings.
\item
  \texttt{'freqLetters='} {[} char \textbar{} \emph{`YHQBM'} {]} - Five
  letters used to represent the five possible frequencies of the IRIS
  dates: yearly, half-yearly, quarterly, bi-monthly, and monthly, such
  as the `Q' in `2010Q1' denoting.
\item
  \texttt{'months='} {[} cellstr \textbar{}
  \emph{\{`January',\ldots{},`December'\}} {]} - Twelve strings
  representing the names of the twelve months. This option can be used
  whenever you want to replace the default English names with your local
  language. .
\item
  \texttt{'plotDateFormat='} {[} char \textbar{} \emph{`Y:P'} {]} - Date
  format used to display dates in graphs including graphs in reports.
  The default is `Y:P', which is different from the
  \texttt{'dateformat='} option.
\item
  \texttt{'tseriesFormat='} {[} char \textbar{} \emph{empty} {]} -
  Format string for displaying time series data on the screen. See help
  on the Matlab \texttt{sprintf} function for how to set up format
  strings. If empty the default format of the \texttt{num2str} function
  is used.
\item
  \texttt{tseriesMaxWSpace='} {[} numeric \textbar{} \emph{\texttt{5}}
  {]} - Maximum number of white spaces printed between individual
  columns of a multivariate tseries object on the screen.
\item
  \texttt{'standinMonth='} {[} \emph{`first'} \textbar{} `last'
  \textbar{} numeric {]} - This option specifies which month will be
  used to represent lower-frequency periods (such as a quarters) when a
  month-displaying format is used in \texttt{'dateformat='}.
\end{itemize}

\subparagraph{External tools used by
IRIS}\label{external-tools-used-by-iris}

\begin{itemize}
\item
  \texttt{'pdflatexPath='} {[} char {]} - Location of the
  \texttt{pdflatex.exe} program. This program is called to compile
  report and publish m-files. By default, IRIS attempts to locate
  \texttt{pdflatex.exe} by running TeX's \texttt{kpsewhich}, and
  \texttt{which} on Unix platforms.
\item
  \texttt{'epstopdfPath='} {[} char {]} - Location of the
  \texttt{epstopdf.exe} program. This program is called to convert EPS
  graphics files to PDFs in reports.
\end{itemize}

\subparagraph{Other options}\label{other-options}

\begin{itemize}
\itemsep1pt\parskip0pt\parsep0pt
\item
  \texttt{'extensions='} {[} cellstr \textbar{}
  \emph{\{`model',`s',`q'\}} {]} - List of extensions that are
  automatically associated with the Matlab editor. The advantage of such
  associations is that the IRIS \href{modellang/Contents}{model files},
  \href{sstatelang/Contents}{steady-state files}, and
  \href{qreport/Contents}{quick-report} files get syntax-highlighted.
